Take-out etiquette
If you order take-out from a nice restaurant, are you supposed to tip the person who delivers your food? If so, how much?
I've never known the answers to those questions, so when I picked up some Asian food at a nice place on Friday night I went ahead and asked. The waiter said that some folks tip the full 15 percent, while many tip nothing at all. He suggested that he'd be happy with a buck or two, which seemed reasonable.
So that's my plan from now on. (Except if it's a freezing cold night and someone delivers a warm dinner right to my car -- they'll get more.)
